“You're not standing on your head! Have a cookie. - Grimspite in Jinx on the Divide”
Elizabeth Kay, Jinx on the Divide
“perhaps,thought Felix,that's what magic is--physics with a different twist to it.
my world just hasn't discovered the twist.”
Elizabeth Kay, Back to the Divide
“Are you frightened of me?' asked Ironclaw. 'No. Why should I be?' 'I'm very fierce,' said the brazzle, with some pride. 'All brazzles are fierce. They have to be, they guard hoards of gold. And they peck people's eyes out. Only when necessary, you understand.' 'Have you ever pecked someone's eyes out?' Ironclaw looked sheepish. 'No. But I could if I wanted to.' Felix smiled.”
Elizabeth Kay, The Divide
“I'm a shreddermouf, aren't I?' 'I was afraid of that,' said Tansy. He was going to keep her in his larder until he was hungy again, and then he was going to rip her apart. 'Dis is my lair', said the shreddermouth proudly. 'It's de best lair in Tiratattle.' 'Is it?' said Tansy. 'Oh yes. It's a drainage tunnel. Goes right up to de surface, it does. Lots of storage space. My name's Gulp.' 'Tansy,' said Tansy, deciding not to ask him what he kept in his storage space and wondering whether introductions were quite the thing.”
Elizabeth Kay, The Divide
“Hardly anyone understands the principles behind magic,"scoffed Betony. "It's too difficult.”
Elizabeth Kay, Back to the Divide
“Broken arms didn't ease my splinters”
Elizabeth Kay
“She was sick, yes, and for such a very long time, but that was such a small part of her narrative.”
Elizabeth Kay
“On s'extirpe de sa famille, puis de ses amis, un bras ou une jambe à la fois, os après os, souvenir après souvenir, quand on construit son couple, quand on devient la moitié d'une paire. Je pensais que le processus s'arrêtait là, que c'était l'étape finale. Je n'avais pas réalisé que le schéma se répétait ensuite. Que ce processus n'était pas un fil, mais un cercle : on passe d'une étape à une autre jusqu'à se retrouver au point de départ, de sorte qu'à la fin on revient à nouveau à la famille.
On fabrique de nouveaux bras, de nouvelles jambes et de nouveaux os et on n'est plus une seule personne parce que, cette fois, on est vraiment constitué de deux êtres. Notre squelette abrite une autre vie, à l'intérieur de la nôtre. Ce lien ne pourra jamais être défait. Ces bras, ces jambes et ces os - cet être nouveau - existeront au-delà de notre corps. Et une partie de nous vivra pour toujours en dehors de nous. Notre cœur est maintenant deux cœurs et l'un d'eux est ailleurs.”
